genetics.... you are the product of your parents.. and unless they have unusually tall brothers, don't get your hopes up.

You are asking for the impossible, unless you can alter your genes somehow you should find satisfaction in the size that you inherited. You may still grow a bit more at 20, but it is likely that you will not. Although there is still hope for you if your grandparents were larger. My Husband is about 6' 170 lbs. His dad was 6'4" 250 lbs. as was his grandfather. Also, my husbands son, my stepson, at 15 years old is about 6'4" and around 240 lbs. Towering over his father.

You can have surgery where the bones are cut and the legs put in braces that are slowly adjusted to keep them apart as the bone grows back...it's a very long painful and risky procedure but if you are really desperate! you should be able to add 2-3 inches, you will need therapy to help the muscles stretch...it's a pretty extreme route to go down and I'd imagine expensive otherwise it's elevator shoes for you.
